Cartoon Saturday

General Motors has borrowed another 4 billion dollars from the government as it rushes toward bankruptcy; striking a powerful blow for academic freedom and independent thought, Liberty University has revoked its recognition of the campus chapter of the College Democrats; a man sucker-punched a blind woman on a bus; and two people have been killed and a dozen or more injured in the bombing of a church in Kathmandu, Nepal.

    Yeah, THAT'S the problem I had with that comic. :-)

    but I don't know if he's ready for this.
    That's the whole reason he survived everything else methinks! ;-) Have a wonderful time.
